In addition to the high-tech compression device, the 52-year-old wore black pants, a dark green coat, a black cap and a black backpack as he rolled a red suitcase through the airport.
Normatec 3 Legs, the latest version of the compression device, costs $799. According to the product description, the device helps with lymphatic drainage, relieves aches and pains, increases blood circulation and helps with freedom of movement.

Renner was struck and run over by a snow plow as he tried to prevent his nephew from being hit by the vehicle.
The actor suffered numerous broken bones and a collapsed lung in the incident, after which he spent a long time in the intensive care unit.
Renner underwent surgery for his injuries following the accident and, although his condition was listed as critical, he was released from hospital treatment on January 17.
Since then, the actor has shared various photos and videos from his recovery process on his Instagram account.
Renner gave his 21.1 million Instagram followers a glimpse into his recovery process by posting a video to accompany his story in November.
In the clip, he was seen crawling across a rock-like platform to test his joints “against gravity.”
He wrote that he was “working through” the pain to further his healing process.
Just ten months after the accident, Renner beamed as he sat courtside at the Los Angeles Lakers game.
The performer recently spoke to CNN and told the media outlet that he feels “very blessed and very lucky to be standing up, walking around and living life.”
Renner went on to say that the accident caused him to reevaluate his priorities and structure his life more efficiently.

“My life is really lean, if that makes sense.” There is no more fat in my life. “I don’t have time for that,” he said.
The Town star also spoke about the “gifts” he gained through his recovery process.
“When you’re tested in every way physically, emotionally, spiritually and then you get through it, it’s hard to explain,” he said.
Renner announced in a post shared to his Instagram account that he plans to release a new music project inspired by his recovery.
The artist shared part of the cover art for his upcoming release titled “Love And Titanium,” although much of it was obscured by a heart emoji.
